@Nick Danaluk - The homestead aka STAR credit received in NY does not make your taxes go up faster. 

I'd call local banks and credit unions, ask for a mortgage specialist, and then asked if they refinance investment rental properties, and if so, what the terms are like.

Get that property locked up in a contract and then deal with the hurt feelings.

I am wondering what are some creative ways to make deals happen without credit or capital.

If you had $10 in your bank account, I wouldn't recommend a turnover, but if you had $100K in your bank account, I'd increase rent sooner than later.Think about it: you're going to eventually want to charge FMR, so procrastinating only hurts you if you have the means to do it sooner than later.

I will be going forward though, as I have been building my credit since my Cashflow covers my bills.

Are you saying that this person may be in dire straights and may be hurt or dead inside the house?

Maybe drop it by a few dollars so it pops back on to people's MLS listings, but change the description to include that you are offering a credit for something at closing, pay part of the closing costs, paying for a home warranty, etc.

If you ask in the contract that the loan be assumable based on credit, and you and have no difficulty doing.

It does nothing but hurt the buyer and seller this rule does.
